"No rush, eat slowly."

CatDodo patted their backs to make sure they were eating and drinking normally and were not frightened before looking at Gal.

Gal ate his jerky while leaning against the stone wall, listening to the sounds. Soon, he nodded to the cat, indicating that it was safe for the time being.

Cat Duoduo finally breathed a sigh of relief and was willing to eat the jerky.

Even while he was imprisoned, the Peacock Clan still sent people to deliver food.

Because of the missing cubs, the food and treatment of CatDodo suddenly dropped, but the good thing is that SnakeCub and the others, as children, can still move around freely—for example, they can go to the toilet.

In the middle of the night, while Cat Duoduo was sleeping soundly, Snake Er caught her.

Snake Two looked very nervous. Having woken them up, the first thing he said was, "I saw a male orc bringing a cub out of where we used to live."

He also gestured to indicate the size of the cub; it was too small and easy to control, but this would easily arouse suspicion.

After all, the place where Maoduo and his companions had previously sought refuge was entirely on the outskirts of the Peacock Clan. Peacock Clan cubs were always carefully protected; how could they possibly be sent to the outskirts?

After much consideration, CatDodo stood up and said, "I'll go and ask to see Chief Plato."

"I'll go too." Gal and the snake cubs said in unison, then looked at each other with disdain.

CatDodo chuckled, then quickly regained her seriousness, emphasizing, "Alright, stop fooling around. I have to go. Hurry up, or the cubs will be in trouble."

She took the initiative to find the Peacock Clan members. When they saw her like this, they thought that Cat Duoduo was about to confess, and they happily took her to the clan leader.

Upon meeting the clan leader, Maoduo looked at the elderly peacock clan leader. The man exuded an imposing aura, completely lacking the kindness he had shown when they first met, only displaying the rage of someone who had lost their cub.

I heard that this cub was the youngest child his wife left behind, and also a symbol of his hopes for the future. I heard that the cub's blood is pure, and that it will awaken great power in the future, potentially making their tribe strong and deterring anyone from bullying them...

As soon as they met, Maoduoduo said, "Chieftain, I want to ask you, have you offended anyone?"

She immediately told Chief Plato everything he had described about Snake Two, and emphasized one thing: "The other party can brazenly hide the cubs in the place where we used to live, and can now take them away freely. It is very likely that they want to use the cubs for something. If it is too late, the cubs will be in danger."

Upon hearing this, Chieftain Pla, whose expression was complicated and who had initially been somewhat skeptical, couldn't help but call over a few guards, "Go and have someone capture Guli."

"Then I'll head back first." CatDodo noticed the complicated tone in the other person's voice when they mentioned 'Guli,' so she simply went back as well.

Looking at the expectant eyes of the group of cubs and Gal, she shrugged and said only, "It seems they've gone off to fight amongst themselves. Let's wait and see."

This is good news; at least the snake cubs are already excitedly rolling around.

Gal then spoke in a low voice about how they should proceed from there.

The internal strife within the Peacock Clan seems to be quite troublesome. They all forgot to bring them food at noon, and it was almost afternoon when the Peacock Clan Chief himself came and released CatDodo and his group.

"I'm very sorry, it was entirely my negligence that allowed the scoundrels in the clan to find an opportunity to frame you."

"Thank you so much for your help. We've put on a party, so please enjoy it!"

This time, he also brought along the cub that Snake Two had described before. The cub looked very small, but it couldn't hide its innocence and naivety. Its bright, pure blue eyes reflected the image of the orc.

There's no indication that this little guy was almost killed before...

The Peacock Clan occupied this area and was quite wealthy.

The food here is quite plentiful. At least, at the party, CatDodo saw a lot of novel ingredients and was immersed in a sea of ​​food with a group of kittens.

"Mommy, this milk fruit is so delicious! The juice is white and tender, and the taste is sweet and fragrant."

"This orange fruit is delicious too, it's sweet and sour."

...

The peacock chieftain smiled and, seeing that the snake cubs really enjoyed eating the fruit, explained that it was only served to honored guests.

The growth of this type of fruit is very time-consuming, and the Peacock Clan spent the entire clan's efforts to master the cultivation method, which was quite difficult.

Upon hearing this, Maoduo immediately looked at them with admiration. They were truly impressive; they were planting experts of this era.

"Don't run away, we're playing." The young Plata was in a good mood and joined in the play with the snake cubs.

CatDodo watched them playing and smiled. At that moment, Plato also quietly explained what had happened earlier.

For example, the peacock chieftain has a very beautiful daughter, and many males in the tribe are actively pursuing her. Among them, Guli, who is currently the chieftain's daughter's partner, is the strongest competitor.

Logically, in this case, the choice of mate should be made by the female, who will generally choose the strongest one so that she can give birth to strong and healthy offspring and ensure a good future.

The problem is that the chieftain's daughter's partner was stuck in the promotion period, but had only stayed at the Peacock Chieftain's house a few times for clan business, and unexpectedly passed the promotion period.

He was quickly chosen as a partner by the clan chief's daughter, and the two lived happily together and already had their own cubs.

But Guli was unconvinced, feeling that the clan chief had secretly helped him. He wanted revenge, ostensibly because he couldn't defeat the clan chief, nor could he match the clan chief's prestige within the clan.

After much deliberation, he decided to target the clan leader's youngest son, simply because the boy was an easy target, and also possessed pure blood and was the most ancient.

Once the cub's core is extracted and it eats itself, Guli's power will increase dramatically, giving him the opportunity to take revenge on the clan leader and the others...

"Liar! This guy is clearly greedy and selfish, he just wants to eat someone else's cubs. Why make up a bunch of excuses?"

Cat Duoduo's face was cold, making no attempt to hide her disgust for these kinds of animals.

The Peacock Clan Chief was somewhat surprised, but still smiled and nodded, "It's good that you understand. Because my punishment this time was rather severe, some people in the clan are talking about me."

"Hehe, that's because they were almost caught and eaten, not their cubs." Cat Duoduo couldn't help but roll her eyes. Seeing the Peacock Clan Chief smiling in a good mood, she couldn't help but start to offer bad advice.

What could be more satisfying than slapping someone in the face like this, except to make them bleed and experience the pain of the world?

Peacock Clan Chief: "..." I learned so much that day!

It was at this time that Plato the Cub, like a little train, brought over several cubs that were a little older than him. They were all peacock chicks, unable to transform yet, their feathers not fully grown.

In the words of Maoduoduo, they are adorable chicks, I want to pet them like crazy...
